DeleteService (ecp-parent 1.27.0-SNAPSHOT API)

All Superinterfaces:

ViewModelService

All Known Subinterfaces:

ConditionalDeleteService

All Known Implementing Classes:

ECPDeleteServiceImpl, EMFDeleteServiceImpl
```
public interface DeleteService
extends ViewModelService
```
The DeleteService is used by renderers in order to delete objects from the containment tree.

Note that since the 1.23 release, it is recommended to implement the ConditionalDeleteService interface to support conditional deletion, honouring the model's edit providers when they veto deletion by providing unexecutable commands.

Since:

1.6
